Third Bridge (Moremi)
Third Bridge
A legendary wooden bridge and camp deep in Moremi, where lion prides often roam nearby, with boat or mokoro access to the channels around Chief's Island.
Third Bridge is a simple bridge built from wooden piles across the Scuba Channel inside Moremi Game Reserve, and is one of the camps self-drive safari enthusiasts dream of. The camp has no fence, so lions, hyenas and baboons often wander through, and you can hear lions roaring at night. Nearby jetties offer motorboat or mokoro trips along the channels and lagoons, including to Mboma Island. From South Gate it is a 1.5 to 2 hour drive, and a 4WD is required. Campsites are run by private companies, and in peak season they must be booked several months ahead.
Opening hours
Approx. 06:00–18:30 (camp stays require reservation)
